FLX Command Summary
SPOOL outftle/SP=lnftle
Specifies that the converted file is to be spooled by the print spooler or the Queue Manager (QMG).

Verifies each record written to a cassette.
ZERO outftle/ZE[:n]=lnftle/RT
Initializes cassettes or 005-11 volumes or, when used with the jRT switch, RT -11 volumes. Initializing erases any files already on the volume.
Command lines for the Disk Volume Formatter Utility (FMT) use the format shown next.
Format
FMT ddnn:[/switchl][oo.]
In this command line, dd is the abbreviation for the volume being formatted and nn is the unit number of the volume.
Switches
BAD ddnn:/BAD
Runs the Bad Block Locator Utility (BAD) if it is installed. Note that you can use this switch only with operating systems that allow spawning of tasks. RSX-IIM-PLUS provides spawned tasks as a system generation option.
DENSITY ddnn:/DEN5=optlon
Selects HIGH (double) or LOW (single) density for RX02 floppy diskettes and HIGH for RX33 diskettes.
ERROR LIMIT ddnn:/ERl=n
Determines the maximum number of errors FMT allows on the volume.
MANUAL ddnn:/MAN
Enters manual operating mode and formats the sector or track you specify.
NOVERIFY ddnn:/-VE or /NOVE
Inhibits the default verification of a successful FMT operation.
OVERRIDE ddnn:/OVR
Overrides or ignores the manufacturer-detected bad sector file (MDBSF).
FMT Command Summary
VERIFY ddnn:/VE
Verifies that an FMT operation was successfully completed. This switch is the default.
WRITE LAST TRACK ddnn:/WLT=n
Rewrites the MDBSF (on the last track of the device) to add bad sectors found during an FMT operation.
INDIRECT ddnn:/@Y
Informs FMT that it is receiving input from an indirect command file.
User intervention is not allowed during the operation.
Command lines for the Librarian Utility Program (LBR) use the format shown next.
Format
outfile[,listfile ]=infile[, ... ]
For this section, M signifies that the command affects macro libraries, 0 signifies that the command affects object libraries, and U signifies that the command affects universal libraries.
Switches
COMPRESS outftle/CO:slze:ept:mnt=lnftle
Compresses a library file by physically deleting logically deleted records, by putting the free space at the end of the file, and by making the free space available for new library module inserts.
CREATE outftle/CR:slze:ept:mnt:llbtype:lnftletype
Allocates a contiguous library file on a direct access device (for example, a disk).
DELETE outftle/DE:module[ ... ]
Logically deletes library modules and their associated entry point from a file.
DEFAULT outftle/DF:ftletype /DF:ftletype
Specifies the default library file type.
DELETE GLOBAL outftle/DG:global[ ... ]
Deletes the specified library module entry points from the entry point table.
ENTRY POINT outftle[/EP]=lnftle[. ... ] outftle=lnftle[!EP][ t • • • ]
Includes or excludes entries in the entry point table.
LBR Command Summary
EXTRACT outftle=lnftle/EX[ :modulename[ ... ]]

LIST outftle[, IIstftle]/ switch
Lists all modules in the library file plus additional information, depending on which form of the switch you use as follows:
ILl Lists all modules in the library file.
ILE Lists all modules in the library file and their corresponding entry points.
IFU Lists all modules in the library file and provides a full module description that includes the size, date of insertion, and module-dependent information.
MODIFY HEADERS outftle/MH:module[:op[, ... ]]
Modifies the optional user-specified information in the module header of a universal library .
REPLACE outftle/RP=lnftle[ .... ] (M and 0) outftle=lnftle[/RP][, ... ] (M and 0) outftle/RP:name[:op[ .... ]]=lnftle[. ... ] (U) outftle=lnftle/RP:name[:op[, ... ]][. ... ] (U)
Replaces or, in certain cases, inserts library modules in a library file.
SELECTIVE SEARCH outftle=lnftle/SS[, ... ]
Sets the selective search attribute bit in the object module header.
SPOOL outftle.llstftle/[ -]SP
